	Kong wrote on Dec 30^th, 2004 at 8:11am: Okay.... I'm getting it all setup and so far I like but I found a problem. I'm using a back up of 3DXL to test and check it out. This includes members. I had the password security mod installed (encrypted passwords). No one can log in unless they use thier encripted password to do it. For wxample, if the members password was dog and password seciruty encrypted it to y38shl30sh3 then that member woudl have to log in with the password y38shl30sh3. Anyone know a way around this? Maybe a script to decrypt and write the decrypted password into username.dat before conversion? There is no way to decrypt the passwords, that's the general idea about encrypting passwords, it's always one-way! Either you change your Y2 to us encrypted passwords too or you'll have to send your members the "new" passwords (they could use the recover password function too).

	The problem is because of the way the server is setup. For example, when you look at it through a browser it's... / (root) /cgi-bin /cgi-bin/yabb2 /yabbfiles but the directory stucture on the server itself is... /cgi-bin /cgi-bin/yabb2 /html/yabbfiles So, for example, I have to setup my smilies dir like so... $smiliesdir = "../../html/yabbfiles/smilies"; When I setup $forumstylesdir like that it tells me i have to use an absolute path. But it can't find the files. I've tried... $forumstylesdir = "/yabbfiles/templates/forum"; $forumstylesdir = "/html/yabbfiles/templates/forum"; I have it working now. I had to use the following... (# to block what i dont' want people to see ) $forumstylesdir = "#:/######/#####/######/html/yabbfiles/templates/forum"; I'm wondering if i will have to do this with other settings as well.

	On how to convert crypted passwords to the new format: http://yabbtest.spikecity.net/cgi-bin/SP2/YaBB.pl?num=1097310977/15#15 It might be outdated, considering that was a few releases ago. But it should still work.

Either you change your Y2 to us encrypted passwords too or you'll have to send your members the "new" passwords (they could use the recover password function too). You're sure there is absolutely no way to decrypt the passwords? Well that sucks. Edit... Just saw the above post. Gonna try it at some point soon. Let you know how ti goes. Edit... AGain... What file to I have to edit?

	You need to edit LogInOut.pl. Basically, what it does is tries to verify passwords using the old crypt method, and if that works, it converts the password to the new format. It could still have some bugs in it, but it worked for me.

	That's not going to work since Y2 doesn't crypt the password. It uses the MD5 algorithm.

	It works if your data is converted from SP 1.X with the password security mod on it. That's the only use for it.

	It works. Thanks. I had one member successfully log in without any problem so I assume there will be no problems. I had somedone ele try and they keep getting logged out automatically. It says they logged in so this script isnt the prob. Thanks for the help. I think someone should post this in the YaBB2 forum here at BoardMod. I'm sure ohters will be looking for this info.

	I posted it on the beta board, since it's relatively untested.
